Dave Made a MazeAims To Pull People Into a Crazy Cool Papercraft Adventure

The dawdler for indie fantasy clowning Dave Made a Maze invokes the old Doctor Who TARDIS joke about being boastful on the inside . But the genuine prayer is in all the handmade environments and peril that the motion picture ’s eccentric will chance .

I ’m someone who wish skew-whiff scifi - adjacent picture show like Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind , Being John Malkovich , and the less - fantastic Be Kind , Rewind . So , yes , Dave Made a Maze looks right up my alley . Directed by Bill Watterson — not the Calvin and Hobbes Jehovah , but the lead actor from the video gameLost Planet 3(which I also liked)—it ’s the story of defeated artist Dave , who pull in a composition board maze in his apartment . Somehow , the snarl ’s interior becomes its own loopy world where Dave is trapped and his friends venture inside to try and get him out .
